Title: Apparatus and method for creating and training artificial neural networks
Inventor: Marcello Mastroleo
IPC: G06N3/08
Filed: 2018-11-15
Abstract: A method of creating and training an artificial neural network comprises storing a neural network model 203 and implementing the model to process input data and produce output data. The output data is evaluated against target output data and, based on the evaluation, a neural network module 202’ is created and added to the model to create an updated neural network model 203’. The method may be performed iteratively until the output data meets a performance criterion indicating a degree of closeness to the target data. Preferably, the neural network module 202’ is added to an output end of the stored neural network model. Creating the module 202’ may involve determining a required number of layers, layer compositions and interconnections, and weights and biases.

Abstract: Electricity monitor 100 with a virtual ground (or earth) 160 contained within a housing 110 allowing customers to safely estimate the cost of electricity bills in the home. An opening 120 in the housing is designed to receive, e.g. open and fit around, an electricity cable or wire 130 so a conductive element 140 is in contact with the cable. The conductive element is preferably made of a conductive compressible foam (400, fig 4a) which conforms (or adjusts) to the size (or diameter) of the electricity cable inserted. The conductive element or foam may surround the cable and have a resilient metal plate (500, fig. 5). Capacitive coupling occurs between the conductive element and the cable. Voltage sensing circuitry 150 may sense a voltage between the conductive element and a virtual ground located within the housing so as to determine a phase of the sensed voltage. There may be a voltage comparator having inputs connected to the conductive element and virtual ground which can change its output state when the sensed voltage crosses zero. Real power and reactive power supplied over the cable may be calculated.

Abstract: A method and device for encoding or decoding video data. A motion vector to be refined is determined (613, 623, fig 6), refined (614, 624, fig 6) and encoded using the refined motion vector. A plurality of patterns for refining the motion vector are capable of being used and the plurality of patterns includes a horizontal pattern (1101, 1105) and a vertical pattern 1102 which are based on the first pixel position indicated by the determined motion vector. When using the horizontal pattern to refine the determined motion vector, a plurality of horizontal sub-pixel positions to the right and left of the first pixel position are evaluated (i.e. are candidates of a horizontal position of the refined motion vector); and when using the vertical pattern to refine the determined motion vector, a plurality of vertical sub-pixel positions above and below the first pixel position are evaluated (i.e. are candidates of a vertical position of the refined motion vector). The resolution of the refined motion vector may be 1/16 sub-pixel resolution. This application is generally for encoding and decoding video data in a decoder side motion vector derivation mode referred as frame-rate up conversion (FRUC) mode.
